Hi Sergey,

>>It's not a bug but behavior change in VFP7 (and later). You cannot use ALTER TABLE on cursor with long field names because it truncates long field names to 10 characters.

Yup - I went back and checked in VFP6 - the long field name gets truncated but no error is generated. Since the app wasn't actually accessing the truncated field there was no problem. But I don't see the behaviour change listed in the VFP7 documentation?

Regards,
Viv
